   SYSDIAG
   DUI > RUN LOGTOOL

   LOGTOOL> HELP LIST

1. Log on as MANAGER.SYS or with SM, OP or DI capability.

2. List the names of log files currently on your system before invoking LOGTOOL:

   
      LISTFILE LOG@.PUB.SYS
   
   

3. Invoke LOGTOOL:

   
      SYSDIAG
      DUI > RUN LOGTOOL
   
   

4. To get data from your current logfile enter the following command to close it and open a new one:

   
      LOGTOOL> SWITCHLOG
   
   

5. If necessary, display logfile record types. (You may skip this step if you already are famililar with types) :

   
      LOGTOOL> TYPES
   
   

6. Display the analysis for specified logfiles as a formatted list.

   
      SYSDIAG>LIST LOG=9/14,17,20,22;TYPE=111,146
   
   

   You may enter the LOG parameter as a range of numbers such as 9/14, as a string of numbers such as 17,20,22, or as a combination range and string. (In this example, LOGTOOL will analyze logfiles LOG0009 through LOG0014 and LOG0017 and LOG0020 and LOG0022.)

   The TYPE parameter specifies the event types you want analyzed. (In the example, types 111, I/O errors, and type 146, maintenance requests, was specified.)

   If you do not wish to see the analysis on your terminal screen, but prefer to write the records to an output file, you would use the ;OUTFILE parameter as follows:

   
     SYSDIAG>LIST LOG=9/14,17,20,22;OUTFILE=MYFILE;TYPE=111,146
   
   

   In this example, the output file MYFILE. You may choose any name so long as it begins with an alphabetic character. LOGTOOL writes the output file to the DIAG group of the SYS account. You may use any HP3000 text editor to examine the output file. You may also copy it with the COPY command or the FCOPY utility.

7. Exit the LOGTOOL utility:

   
      LOGTOOL> EXIT
      DUI > EXIT
